The Flintstones Meet Rockula and Frankenstone

Wilma Flintstone in a bunny costume. What more do you need to know?

Admittedly, "The Flintstones Meet Rockula and Frankenstone" will only appeal to kids, but it's still fairly interesting. It basically has Fred, Wilma, Barney, and Betty winning a trip to Rocksylvania, where they unwillingly meet Rockula and Frankenstone. You see, the Count is convinced that Wilma is his bride.

As one might expect, the Count has an accent similar to Bela Lugosi's, while the Monster's speech mostly consists of growling. I watched this movie a few times when I was really young. At that age, I was able to appreciate it, but I can still understand why little kids would. It is worth seeing, especially since Mel Blanc was still doing Barney's voice.

The Flintstones is my favourite TV series from Hanna-Barbera, and this is a Flintstone TV special I had never seen before until I watched it on TV while I was in Grade 10. It came on a few times, and I taped it, and now it has become another TV special I love.

Anyway, the story starts when Fred wins a vacation in Rocksylvania on the "Make a Deal or Don't" game show. He, Wilma, Barney, and Betty are to spend a night at Count Rockula's castle, which has now been turned into a tourist resort, and attend a costume ball known as "The Rocksylvania Monster Bash." Unfortunately, before joining their wives at the Monster Bash, Fred and Barney accidentally stumble across Rockula's old laboratory, where his unfinished Frankenstone Monster sleeps, and forget to close the window while leaving the lab. Lightning subsequently strikes the machines in the lab and provides Frankenstone with life. Frankenstone awakens Rockula from his secret crypt, and the two scare all the tourists and the working staff out of the hotel, except for the Flintstones and the Rubbles, who had gone to bed early. Of course, while Fred & Barney have a late-night snack from the left-over buffet table downstairs, Rockula & Frankenstone check the rooms to see if anyone is still there. Eventually Rockula spies Wilma sleeping, mistakes her for his long-lost bride, and vows to make her his-even if it means killing Fred.

Like I said, I don't have any particular scene I like because I love this Halloween special from beginning to end.

You knew it line for line, so did your parents, grandparents, brothers, sisters and any one that came to spend any longer than 2 hours at your house. Well this was one of those movies for me. If I had never seen it before and watched for the first time today, I would more than likely not be overly impressed, but since this movie is one of the things that incaptulates my childhood I can't say any thing bad about it.

One line summery: I can't remember doing up my shoes for the first time but I remember this movie... and my copy still works!

Pure fun with the famous prehistoric families who win a trip to Rocksylvania.Some funny moments and lines will appeal to younger audiences better.But still it's only a 48 mins movie.Relax and enjoy.
